Outer Banks Boil Company Franchise Overview

About Outer Banks Boil Company

Founded in 2012, and franchising since the start of 2020, the Outer Banks Boil Company is a seafood boil catering franchise concept that creates an alternative social dining experience that is family-focused and gathers people around one table to enjoy a delicious and perfectly prepared, true Carolinian-style seafood boil. Outer Banks Boil Company offers customers a takeout option of pre-prepared boils of their choice, as well as catering, where they prepare the boil, cook it, and clean up once it is over. The brand currently has locations in North Carolina, Maryland, and Virginia, with additional locations in various stages of development.

Franchise History

In 2012, Matt Khouri began working on the concept of Outer Banks Boil Company as a side job while he worked as a bartender and waiter at other restaurants. As the concept began booking more and more catering jobs, Matt knew that this had become his lifestyle and passion. In 2016, Matt opened the brand’s first brick and mortar location in Corolla, North Carolina and added takeout as another facet of the business model. The brand’s popularity grew – and so did its presence in North Carolina. The brand opened a location in Carolina Beach in 2017, in Ocean City, MD in 2018, and Kitty Hawk in 2019. At the start of 2020 the brand began looking into franchising the business and after launching the franchise opportunity, opened its first franchise location in Charlottesville, Virginia.
